The Nature of Innovation

Archive for April, 2014

One of the big ideas promoted by Jane’s Walk is that anyone can lead a walk. More and more citizens–who may or may not be licensed designers–are now engaged in talking about qualities that contribute to healthy urban habitats. This increase in awareness is changing what people expect from their visual environment.

I hope that the walk I’m organizing for May 4 will encourage participants to get in the habit of asking, “How healthy is this place?” To help us sharpen our critical eyes, I created the (very informal) diagnostic scorecard above. Please join me as we analyse these ingredients and how they affect our state of mind and ultimately our state of health.
